What to eat, what not to eat, and how to think about health: a manifesto for our times "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." These simple words go to the heart of Michael Pollan's "In Defense of Food," the well-considered answers he provides to the questions posed in the bestselling "The Omnivore's Dilemma," Humans used to know how to eat well, Pollan argues. But the balanced dietary lessons that were once passed down through generations have been confused, complicated, and distorted by food industry marketers, nutritional scientists, and journalists-all of whom have much to gain from our dietary confusion. As a result, we face today a complex culinary landscape dense with bad advice and foods that are not "real." These "edible foodlike substances" are often packaged with labels bearing health claims that are typically false or misleading. Indeed, real food is fast disappearing from the marketplace, to be replaced by "nutrients," and plain old eating by an obsession with nutrition that is, paradoxically, ruining our health, not to mention our meals. Michael Pollan's sensible and decidedly counterintuitive advice is: "Don't eat anything that your great-great grandmother would not recognize as food." Writing "In Defense of Food," and affirming the joy of eating, Pollan suggests that if we would pay more for better, well-grown food, but buy less of it, we'll benefit ourselves, our communities, and the environment at large. Taking a clear-eyed look at what science does and does not know about the links between diet and health, he proposes a new way to think about the question of what to eat that is informed by ecology and tradition rather than by the prevailing nutrient-by-nutrientapproach. "In Defense of Food" reminds us that, despite the daunting dietary landscape Americans confront in the modern supermarket, the solutions to the current omnivore's dilemma can be found all around us. In looking toward traditional diets the world over, as well as the foods our families-and regions-historically enjoyed, we can recover a more balanced, reasonable, and pleasurable approach to food. Michael Pollan's bracing and eloquent manifesto shows us how we might start making thoughtful food choices that will enrich our lives and enlarge our sense of what it means to be healthy.
邁剋爾•波倫(Michael Pollan)
美國首屈一指的飲食作傢,其作品多次獲得具有“美食奧斯卡”之稱的詹姆斯•比爾德奬。
2009年獲選《新聞周刊》十大思想領袖,2010年被《時代》周刊評為“全球百位影響力人物”,2013年被《時代》周刊評選為“食物之神”。代錶作《雜食者的兩難》《烹》《為食物辯護》《吃的法則》至今仍是飲食寫作的典範。
現任加州大學伯剋利分校的新聞學教授及科學和環境新聞學奈特項目的主任,但邁剋爾•波倫更像是一位熱愛田野調查的美食偵探,從農場到超市,再到製作齣各種美食的廚房,研究食物從産地到餐桌的過程,同時對飲食文化背後的人類社會睏境進行思考。他也是自然愛好者,他將走訪田園的體驗化作優美而幽默的文字,為工業化食物鏈下的人類,指齣一條古樸、美好且真實可行的路。
本周读物:《为食物辩护》,讲营养学的神话以及应该如何“健康地吃”。其实全本书有点拖沓,想说的内容、大原则可以压缩到1/3容量。另外就是感觉该书是写给吃得过多过快过精细的美国胖子看的,某些内容还没到需要国人担忧的程度。个人评分3.5/5 作者主要建议撷选: 1. 要吃食物...
評分今天上课,班里的美国朋友推荐我读的 她正好要去图书馆还这本书,我就正好去图书馆借过来 写的非常棒 让我重新审视自己的饮食了.
評分最近在看Yale开放课程中有关食物的一堂课,非常有意思。可能是老妈在食品公司工作的缘故,从小就不停给我灌输各种加工食品的知识,中心思想就是这些东西都不健康,还是吃老妈自己做的菜最好。来了美国后,大脑受到高糖高脂高添加剂的食品的诱惑和欺骗,短时间内就染上了和很多...
